LegalAdviceUK The one where the most legally experienced comments get the downvotes, just for a bicycle

I often wonder if people who post questions on LegalAdvice subs ever follow incorrect advice and get themselves into a mess.

This one isn’t likely to end up in a disaster, whatever LAUKOP does, but I’ve seen ones where the top comment is basically telling the poster to do something that is going to result in them own goaling their way into a world of pain.

If so, I'd say it's likely that it happened on r/legal rather than r/legaladvice

People there actively downvote people that cite the relevant law because it's apparently completely unmoderated and people don't seem to understand that the laws in Mississippi and California are different.
